Lyrics

[Verse]
I opened the bag with a trembling hand
Orange chicken dreams
A feast so grand
But the sauce was gone
Nowhere to be found
A teriyaki tragedy
No joy around

[Prechorus]
Oh
The fortune cookie lied
It said "delight"
But my noodles were dry
It didn’t feel right

[Chorus]
No teriyaki
Oh
The pain
Like a sky that won’t stop the rain
But wait—one bag
One sweet surprise
Enough to share
Enough to rise

[Verse 2]
I sat there staring at the soy-stained fate
Chow mein cold
But it’s never too late
Dipped one piece
Then passed it around
A table of smiles where hope was found

[Bridge]
Life’s like that bag
Sometimes it’s bare
You think it’s empty
But there’s still care
A single packet can heal the ache
A little love in every mistake

[Chorus]
No teriyaki
Oh
The pain
But we found joy in what remained
One bag saved us
A gift disguised
Enough to share
Enough to rise
